Photos of Japan

Ginkgo trees in autumn at Okayama Univ. where I did the first post-doc.

Sampling by the Japan's Inland Sea (Seto-naikai) and a long (13 km) bridge over the sea

Me climbing up Mt.Fuji, being already above coulds.

Large fish-tank inside the restaurant.

Typical Japanese cuisine at a restaurant seaside.

Traditional hive for the Japanese honey bee in the apiary

Snowy apiary I managed when I was Ph.D student.

A view around the place I grew up (rice field and well-maintained ridge ways)

A castle (at Himeji) and full-blooming cherry blossums near my apartment when I did the first post-doc
